The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend.

God calls us to worship, but in many instances we are in entertainment, just running a poor second to the theaters. That is where we are, even in the evangelical churches, and I don't mind telling you that most of the people we say we are trying to reach will never come to a church to see a lot of amateur actors putting on a home-talent show.

The only cross in all of history that was turned into an altar was the cross on which Jesus Christ died. It was a Roman cross. They nailed Him on it, and God, in His majesty and mystery, turned it into an altar. The Lamb who was dying in the mystery and wonder of God was turned into the Priest who offered Himself. No one else was a worthy offering.

The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.

We have learned to live with unholiness and have come to look upon it as the natural and expected thing.

God cannot use a man or woman greatly until he wounds them deeply.

We ought not to be looking for a place to hide, but a place to give ourselves as an offering to God.

What's closest to your heart is what you talk about, and if God is close to your heart, you'll talk about Him.

Christ dazzles me and stirs within me such feelings of amazement that I can never get over Him.

God's gifts are many His best gift is one. It is the gift of Himself.

We who follow Christ are men and women of eternity. We must put no confidence in the passing scenes of the disappearing world. We must resist every attempt of Satan to palm off upon us the values that belong to mortality. Nothing less than forever is long enough for us.
